About

Survival horror RPG where NYPD rookie Aya Brea fights a biological threat over six days in Manhattan. After witnessing an opera singer's grotesque transformation that incinerates the audience, Aya discovers the culprit is mitochondria—cellular organisms rebelling against humanity. The antagonist, Eve, plans to eradicate humans and birth a new species. Combat happens in real-time with pause-to-aim mechanics borrowed from Square's RPG toolkit. You explore crime scenes and labs, solve environmental puzzles, and upgrade Aya's equipment between encounters. Her own mitochondrial mutations grant powers that grow stronger as days progress. Battles mix positioning with menu-driven abilities. Each of the six days escalates the stakes with new monsters and story revelations about Aya's unique biology. The science fiction angle grounds horror in genetic mutation rather than supernatural forces.
